Details about the new brand are scarce.
The Instagram account for American Riviera Orchard features a brief, low-resolution video depicting hands arranging flowers, Meghan cooking in a kitchen, and a woman in formal attire standing at the end of a lengthy colonnade.
The website showcases the brand’s logo and invites visitors to join a waiting list.
The bio section of the Instagram account, which has already amassed tens of thousands of followers, simply identifies the brand as “by Meghan, The Duchess of Sussex” and states its establishment year as 2024.
Her official Instagram account has not seen any recent updates.

The application also mentions the possibility of releasing cookbooks.
